Quantizing Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1 Model with FP8

This directory contains an example script for quantizing the Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1 model using the static per-tensor FP8 quantization scheme.

Installation

To get started, install the necessary dependencies by executing the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/vllm-project/llm-compressor.git
cd llm-compressor
pip install -e .

Quickstart

The provided example script demonstrates an end-to-end process for applying the quantization algorithm:

python3 mixtral_moe_w8a8_fp8.py

Creating a Quantized MoE Model

This example leverages llm-compressor and compressed-tensors to create an FP8-quantized Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1 model. The model is calibrated and trained using the open_platypus dataset.

You can follow the detailed steps below or simply run the example script with:

python mixtral_moe_w8a8_fp8.py

Step 1: Select a Model, Dataset, and Recipe

In this step, you'll choose a baseline model for quantization, a dataset for calibration, and a quantization recipe.

  • Models: Can be referenced from a local directory or retrieved from the Hugging Face Hub.
  • Datasets: Can also be from a local directory or the Hugging Face Hub.
  • Recipes: These are YAML files or Python modifier objects that describe how a model should be optimized during or after training. In this example, we use a QuantizationModifier object with the scheme set to FP8.
from llmcompressor.modifiers.quantization import QuantizationModifier

recipe = QuantizationModifier(scheme="FP8", targets="Linear", ignore=["lm_head", "re:.*block_sparse_moe.gate"])

NOTE: .*block_sparse_moe.gate layers do not quantize well, hence they are ignored!

Step 2: Run Quantization Using Oneshot

The oneshot method applies the selected recipe to your model and dataset without requiring any fine-tuning. The model will be sparsified and saved to Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1-FP8.

from llmcompressor.transformers import oneshot

output_dir = "Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1-FP8"

oneshot(
    model=model,
    dataset=dataset,
    recipe=recipe,
    save_compressed=True,
    output_dir=output_dir,
    overwrite_output_dir=True,
    max_seq_length=2048,
    num_calibration_samples=512,
)

Custom Quantization

NOTE: Only per-tensor quantization is supported in vLLM as of now (vllm==0.6.1)

The repository supports multiple quantization techniques configured via a recipe. Supported strategies include tensor, group, and channel quantization.

In the above example, FP8 per-tensor quantization is used as specified by the FP8 scheme. For other preset schemes, refer to the quantization schemes in the compressed-tensors library.

A custom scheme can also be specified using config_groups:

# Example of defining a custom quantization scheme

from llmcompressor.modifiers.quantization.gptq import GPTQModifier

config_groups = {
                "group_0": {
                    "targets": ["Linear"],
                    "input_activations": None,
                    "output_activations": None,
                    "weights": {
                        "num_bits": 8,
                        "type": "int",
                        "symmetric": true,
                        "strategy": "group",
                        "group_size": 128, 
                    }
               }
}

recipe = GPTQModifier(config_groups=config_groups)
